Music from the Windows.

Just saw this video clip on "Best of Youtube" and thought that it was worth passing along. It's a short musical piece composed entirely of the sound efx from Windows XP and 98. When I heard it, I found myself working to identify the sounds that they used to compose this piece, as they came along in the song. Funny how the brain works to quantify the world around it.

This thing isn't going to win a Grammy, but it's catchy in it's own way. I think it's interesting to see people using their creative urges to make something out of tools that were not intended to be used in this way. I think it's rather skillful and artistic.

Cheers,
COB

I'm always impressed with people who can find creativity anywhere and everywhere. They are the ones to watch. Good for these guys. Thanks Mr. B for bringing it my attention. It's oddly inspiring. :)
